OUT OF HER EYES (poemoff2)

February 28th, 2007 by Zack

OUT OF HER EYES

lashes, weary or drops

to roll down alabaster

cheeks, bloodless lips

her legs pale pillars of

marble, delicately veined,

pale blue rivers flowing

south from her heartbreak

and i wish i was dead inside

of her, inside the graves

of her eyes.

notes: the title of this poem comes from tiffany’s “sits weeping in your desert”
